The organisation of the diagnostic field as part of the Policy Masterplan Early and Nearby
Introduction: The current organizational model in the field of Welfare, Public Health and Family in Flanders has reached its limits, resulting in severe accessibility problems, poor coordination between services, lack of balanced geographical spreading and suboptimal use of financial resources. As a first step, a concept note “Early and Nearby. Towards an integrated policy for children, youth, and families.” was drafted by the Flemish authorities…
The empty desk in class
This paper engages with conversations with two teachers who each build socially just pedagogies and engage in minor gestures in response to the socio-educational-political reality they were confronted with – namely, a pupil disappearing from the classroom when her parents’ application for immigration was rejected. In an assemblage connecting the conversations to a transforming picture of an empty desk, to social media posts and online news source…
Several times I have asked the judge to get my children back”
European societies struggle with the question of how to deal best with, and organize care for, those children who, for various reasons, need to be placed out of their home. In an attempt to protect these children, states organize different forms of care. Under the influence of testimonies of abuse and neglect, the image of residential care has become tainted and the placement of looked‐after children in foster families has become increasingly fav…
Discovering dimensions of research ethics in doing oral history
In this article, we argue that research ethics in the doing of oral history research are inadequately addressed in the existing body of research. Although oral history researchers have paid considerable attention to procedural ethical issues, there is currently a lack of attention on situational research ethics in the doing of oral history. We address particular ethical challenges that we experienced while reconstructing the history of three rema…
Foster parents between voluntarism and professionalisation
Challenging the Normative Truth Logic in the Politics of Apology
In recent years, the historical abuse perpetrated against children in residential child-welfare and protection services has increasingly been perceived as a public concern. In the context of this European and global development, several formal inquiries commissioned by authorities into the alleged historical abuse of children in social work services were perceived as a political priority to repair human injustices, and were set up as an attempt t…
Between a contaminated past and a compromised future
In the past decades, a body of international research concerning residential institutions for children emerged. This article focuses on the history of the Ghent orphanages (1945–1984). First, the population of the more than 1200 children and young people resident in the orphanages between 1945 and 1984 is analysed. This analysis illustrates a shift from a legal approach to a normative interpretation of the orphaned child. It becomes clear that th…
The aspirations of Afghan unaccompanied refugee minors before departure and on arrival in the host country
This article explores the perspectives of Afghan unaccompanied refugee minors on their own motives and aspirations and on the motives and aspirations of their family and community context at the moment they left their home country and at arrival in the host country. Interviews and questionnaires were used to measure the aspirations of 52 Afghan unaccompanied refugee minors, soon after their arrival in Belgium. Aspirations at departure and evoluti…
Jean Vigo’s Zéro de conduite and the spaces of revolt
In this article we will contribute to the contemporary theoretical debate about film by considering, from a history-of-education perspective, the film Zéro de conduite by Jean Vigo (1905–1934). This film is classified under the umbrella of “poetic realism”: a product of cinéma de gauche and an avant-gardist, surrealist and anarchist-catalogued film by a film-maker described by many as very talented and creative. The paper is divided into five par…
Introduction to the themed Paedagogica Historica issue “Anarchism, Texts and Children”
Up to now, only a small amount of attention has been paid to anarchism and education within the history of education and the history of childhood. For instance, although the anarchist position on e

Since when are we, mothers who raise their kids themselves, dopes?’ Debates on women’s emancipation in Belgian educational television programmes for women (1954–1975)
This research explores political–educational debates regarding the concept of women’s emancipation in women and family programmes on Belgian television between 1954 and 1975. From the very beginning, the women’s episodes were regarded as explicitly educational. The episodes were created to increase women’s participation by means of their emancipation, but simultaneously continued to underline women’s segregation from men. Therefore, we want to re…
Repairing the body, restoring the soul
In the second half of the nineteenth century, France suffered of one of the highest rates of tuberculosis in Europe. This illness increased gradually until its peak in the late 1880s and early 1890s, whereupon it started decreasing. The high infant mortality rate, caused by different forms of tuberculosis, was especially considered a huge problem. Infant mortality claimed as many lives as major epidemic diseases and thus had a considerable effect…
Visualising disability in the past
In recent years there has been a growth in interdisciplinary work which has argued that disability is not an isolated, individual medical pathology but instead a key defining social category like ‘race’, class and gender. 1 1 See, for example, Catherine J. Kudlick, “Disability History: Why We Need Another ‘Other’,” American Historical Review 108, no. 3 (2003): 763–793. Seen in this way disability provides researchers with another analytic tool fo…
On Cioran's Criticism of Utopian Thinking and the History of Education
The starting point of our research is the recent discussion within history of education about the aim and scope of historical educational research. More specifically, it deals with the relationship between the past and the future and is characterized by two clashing paradigms. The recent discussion within history of education is from the perspective of philosophy of education extremely interesting. Particularly intriguing is the way in which hist…
